The 2025 NFL Draft was supposed to bring some clarity to the Kirk Cousins situation. For those who need a reminder, Cousins signed a four-year, $180 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons last offseason, only to eventually be overtaken by first-round rookie Michael Penix by the end of the season.

NFL Draft has come and gone, leaving excitement, hope, and disappointment in its wake. But for Kirk Cousins, the NFL Draft over the last two seasons has been nothing short of a nightmare. Last year, he was dumbfounded as the Atlanta Falcons drafted Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr.
